Cloud Archive User Service (CLAUS)

Archive Availability and Status

This table shows the availability and processing versions of the
CLAUS data at a monthly resolution. It will be updated as and when new/revised data become
available in the BADC archive. Note that older versions of the data are
not retained, either at BADC or ESSC.

The order in which data are processed depends on the availability of new/revised data from ISCCP and resources at ESSC. If you have a
particular need for non-archived data for a specific period, please let the Project Scientist know.

History

1.0

Data generated by National Remote Sensing Centre under
contract to ESSC as part of the CLAUS project using the
ISCCP source data 'as is'.

1.5

Data generated by ESSC, either during the CLAUS project
or afterwards, with identification and removal of individual
images with obvious navigation or calibration errors.

2.0

Generated by ESSC after end of project, using improved
limb darkening correction techniques.

2.1

Calibration trend errors identified and corrected.

3.0

Data from geostationary satellites given temporal
weighting to improve results in overlap regions.
